EPA v. KONOVER RESIDENTIAL CORP (LOFTS AT CARGILL FALLS MILL)

Case summary

On May 21, 2026, Region 1 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order (CAFO) both initiating and resolving allegations against Konover Residential Corporation (Respondent) of violations of Section 409 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), 15 U.S.C. Section 2689, the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act, and the Disclosure Rule set forth at 40 C.F.R. Part 745, Subpart F. These alleged violations arise from Respondent's management of the residential units (which are target housing) at the Cargill Falls Mill property located in Putnam, Connecticut. EPA alleged that Respondent did not provide proper disclosure to the tenants of eleven units before they became obligated to lease the units. Specifically, EPA alleged that Respondent failed to: 1) provide lessees with an EPA-approved lead hazard information pamphlet; 2) include a lead warning statement in lease agreements; 3) provide lessees with a statement disclosing the known presence of lead-based paint hazards, or indicate no knowledge of such hazards; and 4) provide a list of records or reports pertaining to lead-based paint or lead-based paint hazards or indicate that no such records were available. The CAFO requires Respondent to pay a civil penalty of $359,069.
